Wire to Wireless

What a Trip!

Bob Brooks started his recording career on a wire recorder… yes; you heard that right. A wire recorder; and cut acetates from the wire for on-air release. Please… no RCA dog logo here… he’s not that old!

From wire recorders to the first Neve console on Canada’s West Coast, Brooks had always sought out the leading edge of recording technology. So when a corporation asked him to step out of retirement and help put together a studio in the Seattle area, Bob had some reckoning to do.
